As the School Library Association we support everyone involved in school libraries: Heads, Governors, School Library Staff or Volunteer - we will work with you to provide the best educational experience for your pupils. 

We will make recruiting, training and retaining your school library staff as easy as possible, with template job descriptions, interview schedules and questions ready to go. 

Our services are in demand, and we want to support everyone who needs it. Help us reach more pupils and schools to improve reading, wellbeing and much more.
